Please Note: Due to the handmade nature of Pith Helmets, be advised there might be minor imperfections in the construction of the hat. These imperfections do not hinder the look or wear of the helmet.
Made in Vietnam
"Dr Livingston, I presume?"
This pith helmet style (also known as UK Pith Helmet) is associated with British colonial and foreign service history. It is made from trees grown in the northern part of Vietnam. The material can sustain heavy sunlight as well as rain. When wet the hat may become a bit softer, but then dries to its original state. The Vietnamese learned the art of pith helmet manufacturing a hundred years ago from the French during their occupation.
Please Note: Pith helmets can be immersed in water, whereby the wearer stays cool during use on hot summer days. Please submerge the outside of the helmet carefully, without allowing water to spill into the interior of the helmet.

Just what the Maharaja ordered! This will compliment my bush jacket and Jodhpur trousers, (also in khaki), very well. Now that I have a Blackthorn swagger stick, I’m extremely happy.
This was exactly what I ordered, and honestly I think it looks better in person. Wasn’t certain which size to get, but after reading some of the reviews and measuring my head, I concluded the large size was for me, and I was right. I will display this on a Roman bust that I have, and maybe wear with a kilt for the occasional costume party, or once a year when I watch Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and pretend to be Colonel Potts. Ha. Anyway, I could not be more pleased with my purchase!
I really enjoyed the website and I enjoyed getting my hat
Lovely and exceptionally lightweight. Could do with an adjustment buckle rather than velcro, but it works and that's what matters.
